About this Episode:
Okay, so I was obviously stalling a bit last week. The reason for that was I wanted to get everyone out of that tan hallways that’s so difficult to light well. This nice green room looks so much better, don’t you think?

Zombie Cliché Lookout:
You know what my absolute favorite tactic is? Hey, look over there!

Sorry, I couldn’t resist. At any rate, I just love diversions. Now I’m no tactician, but it seems to me diversions should be a regular part of any zombie survivalists arsenal. Just imagine being in a tight spot and sending the least-popular member of your party tear-assing through a crowd of dead heads while he’s got pounds and pounds of rancid meat lashed to him. Escape would be easy, at least for everyone else in your group. The best example I can think up from a recent zombie movie is from the otherwise disappointing Land of the Dead. In the film, survivalists use fireworks to distract zombies while they raid towns for supplies and other loot. It works great until the fireworks invariably fail, but you have to expect that, right?

  1. Stewart always seemed to be the type to find flaws in a plan – even before he knows what it is! 😉

    • So long as it’s not his plan, right?

  2. Just imagine being in a tight spot and sending the least-popular member of your party tear-assing through a crowd of dead heads while he’s got pounds and pounds of rancid meat lashed to him.

    Aww… Poor, poor Sam!
    I’d bet he’s gonna be in pretty ‘unpleasant’ situation very soon 😀

    • Hah. Too bad our guys don’t have the extra food to waste.

      • They could use the guts from that room with one-legged skeleton! 😀

        • Hah, just like in The Walking Dead. Super gross.

  3. Is there a remake of Land of the Dead? Or are you talking about the piece of junk the John Leguizamo was nice enough to do as a favor?

    • And by favor I mean that he wasn’t famous enough to not do stupid b movies.

    • I’m talking about the piece of junk with Leguizamo (whom I like for some reason) and Dennis Hopper. Terrible movie.

  4. hey i fixed my computer and now to prevent any more trouble i am downloading a free antivirus.
    this will be my last comment in a while stil restoring.
    by the way here’s the link to the zombie game i promised http://www.johnnytwoshoes.com/game/comatosenew
    well better get back to restoring later peeps!

    • Good luck. BTW, AVG and Avast are both pretty good free anti-virus programs.

      • weirdly i was downloading avast O-O

        • Well there you go

  5. But the zombies will get them surrounded in the ally.

    • Not if they’re all out in the street, right?

  6. If they load the guts (disgusting but effective) onto some furniture and push it out a window it might work rather than a human sacrifice. I mean, they are much more lucky than most zombie media characters…

    • They are pretty lucky, aren’t they?

  7. Fire escape = alarms or lound clanging metal = Dinnerbell

    • i go down the fire escape in the building my dad worked at all the time no alarms go off…………….and the place even has adt……with adt fire alarms………………..no joke!

      • I think it depends on the building. I’ve been places before were people use the fire escape as a balcony. No alarms or anything like that.

  8. your right that green room does look good if there was’nt a zombie apocalypse going on around the place i would move in! remember when you said something about a rusian weapons whatever wel i crated a rough draf with ldd but i could’nt decide on hair so i will put it on brickshelf then post a link and you can choose if you like it and if you do choose which hair then you can get it from pick a brick! i would be fine if you don’t like it i made it in about 1 minute or so.

    • What’s the link for the image on Brickshelf?

      • i could’nt get it on brickshelf but i might try flikr well see you soon.

        • faied to get it on flikr but i will try other sites.

  9. Hey being following this serice for quiet some time i think you might be intrested in this game its very early pre alpha stages even but deals with a lot of the zombie apoc problems apart from the zombies
    http://projectzomboid.com/blog/

    • Funny you should mention Project Zomboid, Joe. I have a blog post scheduled about it for tomorrow morning.

      It’s a pretty great game, even in pre-alpha. If anyone here hasn’t tried it yet, cough up the eight bucks and have a go. Even if you don’t like it, you’re supporting independent developers, which is awesome.

  10. Monkey Bomb! Just kidding. Perhaps an explosion?

    • That’d certainly be distracting.

    • Looks like lots of BotD readers love explosions!
      Yeah, explosions are pretty funny… 😀

      • Yeah, but really, who doesn’t love it when things get blow’d up real good?

        • Perhaps getting those nick-nacks we spoke of earlier, tying them together, then throwing them into the window of another house across the street!

  11. Yeah, that room looks loads better!

    And Sam is bait now anyway… Always was, I think, ever since he became “Mr. Flipout.” Is he a vegetarian by any chance? He could turn out like Bud the Zombie… 😉

    • Thanks The Dude Person!

      Vegetarian zombies… good lord.

  12. ok now i’ll try to put it up on this site……ok…here it goes.
    crap not working sorry guys.

    • What’s going on? Whatever it is, I wanna see it 😀 Having difficulties with uploading something?

      • oh it’s a design for the russian weapon enthu-whatever guy……but i could’nt decide on hair so i needed daves opion on them………….it was made in 1 minute on ldd took a screenshot and tried to upload it on 3 sites(brickshelf,flikr and this site)well i will try to keep trying different sites.

        sorry for the cliffhanger Adeladie.

        • Enthusiast. How come you’re striking out with those image upload sites? What about Photobucket or ImageShack?

        • i did’nt think of photo bucket i’ll try that now.
          the reason i failed the first two sites is i never got the conformation email…then i tried to upload it directly to this site that was sort of impossible.

    from left to right 1 2 3 4 5 choose your fave.

    • Not bad. I think I like the gray hair.

      • i made it ldd so you can get it on pick a brick link below

        http://shop.lego.com/pab/

        kinda hard to navigate but ALOT cheaper than ordering from ldd.

  15. hey guys i organized a bricklist of most of the sets needed to crate an awesome zombie movie!
    link below

    sorry about this it’s not adverising i thought you should see it dave it follows a few of the things i picked up from this comic.(don’t know if you saw the link to the pics of th russian guy but it is in the comment above.

    • Not a bad list. The SW stuff has “flesh” colored minifigs, which I don’t care for so much. That’s just my personal preference though.

    • Man, gotta love the werewolf!

      • i have one and it RULES!!!!

  16. i was planning on later making a yellow version.i always thought flesh looked more “realistic” in my mind
